Chapter 237 Stay Overnight



Shui Ning Palace.

At this time, Miaoxia and Nanny Lin were both standing around the bed with anxious looks on their faces.

Miaoxia held a warm handkerchief in her hand and kept wiping the cold sweat from her master's forehead, her movements gentle yet urgent.

"Master, Miaoyun has gone to invite His Highness. The imperial physician will be here soon. Master, please be patient."

Nanny Lin was comforting him softly, her face full of worry, her brows furrowed, and she didn't dare to take her eyes off her master for a moment.

The woman on the bed was as pale as paper. She curled up with her hands on her head, hitting her head from time to time. She closed her eyes tightly, clenched her teeth, and was in so much pain that she couldn't even speak.

As soon as Jun Zechen came in, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

His eyes suddenly became solemn.

It was fine when I left just now, how come it suddenly became like this?

When Miaoxia and Nanny Lin saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come in, they immediately greeted him in a panic and then quickly made way for him.

Jun Zechen quickly walked to the bedside and sat down, tightly holding Su Jingyao's hand, who had been hitting her head, to prevent her from hurting herself again.

Then he carefully helped her up, held her in his arms, reached out his hand, and gently massaged her temple, applying a little force with his fingers.

Jun Zechen has practiced martial arts for many years, and at this moment the heat of his internal energy was continuously emitted from his fingertips. Su Jingyao indeed felt a lot more comfortable, and her frown relaxed a little.

But his eyes were still closed, and he looked unconscious.

"what happened?"

Jun Zechen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Jingyao's expression of pain had lessened a little. He turned to Miaoxia and asked.

"Your Highness, the master has been unable to sleep since your Highness left, so Miaoyue brought the calming soup that had been warmed up for the master to drink. A quarter of an hour after the master drank it, he began to vomit, and then gradually began to have a headache."

Miaoxia answered with her head down.

"Has your master drunk this calming soup today?"

Is there poison in the calming soup?

"Originally, the master would drink a bowl of soothing soup or beauty soup every day, but today..."

Miaoxia's voice became smaller and smaller, and she hesitated, not knowing how to start.

"What happened today?"

Jun Zechen's eyes became sharp.

"Today, the Highness went to Huamei Residence, so the Master was not in the mood to drink any soup, and did not drink the calming soup either. Miaoyue kept the calming soup warm."

Miaoxia bit her lip and mustered up the courage to finish her words in one breath.

As the prince's concubine, my master's behavior is jealousy and should not be spoken out loud.

Jun Zechen's eyebrows jumped suddenly.

When he came out of Huamei Residence and came to Shuining Palace, the woman was still playing cards blatantly and did not have the slightest headache at all.

Jun Zechen thought at the time that she was relying on his favor and was fearless.

After all, she sprained her ankle last time during the Flower Festival and was too lazy to pretend.

In addition, this was not the first time that Su Jingyao sent people to other palaces to ask him to leave, so Jun Zechen did not have any doubts at all.

He even felt that she was smart this time, as she knew to just send a random palace maid to ask for the favor. This way, even if the queen mother pursued the matter, there would be no loss by pushing an insignificant palace maid away.

But now it seems that this is not the case?

"Can your master send someone to Huameiju today to ask me to come and see her?"

Jun Zechen asked in a deep voice.

Nanny Lin then said, "Your Highness, the master knew that you went to Huamei Residence today, and was in a bad mood. He did not drink the tranquilizing soup. Later, Miaoxia played cards with the master to amuse him."

Nanny Lin said as she observed Jun Zechen's expression.

"Normally, if His Highness did not come to Shuining Palace, the Master would read quietly, but tonight the Master could not read..."

Then Nanny Lin knelt down with a plop. "Your Highness, the master has a bit of a temper, but she will never be unruly and deceive Your Highness! The master did not instruct anyone to go to Huamei Residence to invite Your Highness tonight!"

So the reason why Su Jingyao admitted that she did it was because he didn't believe her, so she just admitted it?

Jun Zechen couldn't tell what he felt at the moment. It was indeed his preconceived ideas.

He looked down at the pale-faced woman in his arms and his heart ached.

She was still young and spoke and acted directly. When she first explained that it was the Crown Princess who framed her, he should have believed her.

"Today I will go to Huamei Residence to ask for my maid to leave. Please call her in."

Jun Zechen's voice was icy cold without a trace of warmth.

When Miaoxia turned around and walked out, the anxious expression on her face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a sneer.

With a cold sneer, he realized that if he hurt his master, he would not be able to escape unscathed, even if there was a Crown Princess behind him.

Soon, Miaoxia came in with Aokiji.

Aokiji was already panicking about having to invite the prince tonight, and he tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Being suddenly summoned now frightened him to death and was extremely scared.

"Your servant pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Her voice was trembling violently and she knelt on the ground trembling.

Jun Zechen didn't shout or say anything, but his big hands continued to gently massage Su Jingyao's temples.

Aokiji was kneeling on the ground with his head buried, not daring to look up at the prince's expression. But when he came in just now, he quickly glanced at the concubine's pale face.

What's going on?

She was extremely scared now. The unknown direction of events made her hands tremble constantly, and her body also trembled slightly.

Jun Zechen has been the emperor for decades and is best at psychological games. When interrogating people, he naturally has to do so when the other person's psychological defenses are at their weakest, so he remains silent to create a depressing atmosphere.
